The issue is this. My phone used to randomly reboot every once in a while and sometimes the reboot would loop at the splash screen infinitely. (like the Syndicate android screen) I thought it might be bad app or bad installs or something so I did completely clean install (ODIN EB13) and wiped sd card. Now my phone runs fine for a little bit, but when my battery goes down a certain amount it randomly says critically low battery and shuts off. It just happened 5 minutes ago and I had to power it back on. I am basically using a brand new phone except for the battery and my contacts (vcm0001 or whatever)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Very odd indeed. Could be the battery. Mind getting me a logcat?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KOYHOY:
What are the steps I need to take for that?

Also do you want it before a restart or after one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dzuchowski:
This is just me but i usually like to go into Clockworks mod 3.x and go under:

Mounts and Storage: and then format everything that always you to format like bootloader, system, data. The only thing i dont format is the sd card.

Then after doing that like three times i install my custom rom and then usually i dont have any issues. I usually trade off between this rom (ACS) and Midnight Rom. I like both and have to give Midnight a high five for spreading news about Autism. Both roms are great. Not to flame one against the other but which seems to have better battery and quadrant scores? I noticed that Midnight may have better quadrent scores but by a small amount. But ACS may have better battery life. Everything is a trade off....

Ofcouse i just ordered the gorilla gadget extended battery 3500. kids asking me stuff be back later.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Well actually come to think of it, if it's causing your phone to boot off at random intervals, will it even be on a logcat? I'm no expert with that stuff unfortunately, so I'm not sure you'd even be able to get it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KOYHOY:
So who would know something like this? I use my phone a lot and I really appreciate any help I can get.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
k0 might know more on how to track something like that. It really does sound to me as if either the battery stats aren't being correctly read or there's an issue with the battery since you say it shows 50% but says critical battery error on stock and shuts down.
[Epic 4G Android Development] endurance1:
everything was working fine, but now when i restart my phone i get a forceclose right when is wipe it to get to the main screen that says: calendar storage

it comes up for almost everything i do now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
If it's a major hindrance you may want to reflash the rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KOYHOY:
Alright, how can I reach him? I've been trying the irc's but no one really seems to be there. The phone recently shut off around half battery, and when I turned it back on it was at the smallest mark but it is still on... Is there any quick way to reach k0nane or someone who might have any idea?

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'd just PM him. And based on what you just said, sounds like a bad reading/screwed up hardware to me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zenvita:
Try the original battery. Do you still have it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Barshalen:
I just had some problems with the battery myself. I rebooted the phone at 51% and when it booted up it said charge phone immediately. I removed battery an waited a min to put it back and it went up to 15%. Did it again and it went up to 29%. Wouldn't get any higher han that though.. then all of my data became corrupt, had to do factory reset from recovery because phon just boot looped..

Going to reflash and calibrate battery tonight.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yup, that's what I'd recommend doing in that situation ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mk4UmHa:
I have a 2nd epic and every time the phone doesn't power off before the battery dies it will start having forced close and other failures which requires a complete reflash. This has happened twice now. Is this a phone problem? Syndicate Rom always ran fine on it though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Leviuqse:
+1

FC Trapster, Movies, and Yelp

I already clear data\cache, unistalled and install them again, reboot..ect...and still doesnt work
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Not a phone problem per-se but perhaps an ext4 problem. Data can get corrupted often if the phone is not powered off correctly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Did you flash the maps fix? ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KOYHOY:
I have had boot loop issues and that is mainly why I am trying to figure this out. The rebooting by itself wasnt too bad, but when the phone would boot loop I'd start to miss alarms and stuff... I will try the stock battery and see if that's the problem...
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevalB:
I did flash the fix, and even with the Epic setting, it still resets. In fact, it just reset now on 3G.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Happens to me sometimes too. Not a rom issue, just the fact that the app itself is still in alpha mode.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
Idk whats up but I thought all 2.2 have flash and im having ti get it from market is it not pushed to this rom or what and also I hate being forced to use swype I wish tney would have at least kept the android keyboard but othrr that the roms love and so is battery life rund better than stock
[Epic 4G Android Development] tenaciousj:
Get Gingerbread keyboard from the market??
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Flash must be downloaded, and you can use the GB keyboard found here ;) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Anon9mouz:
Why tho I never had to with evo
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It has been removed as bloat in this rom. Gives you the option on if you want it or not. And we all like more options ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
Is there any plans for RFS?

Two reasons from what I understand you can't restore a nandroid backup. Many people have asked how to turn journaling ext4 back off. Is there a way to?

2. Because of no journaling the phones data gets messed up if you get a locked up app &/or you have to power it off with a bat pull.

Sent from my ComBadge..
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Probably not RFS..... and I can restore nandroids just fine ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
That's what I thought as well. Still use the ad hoc wireless tether app for that reason (until the dev works out the kinks)
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
I thought that you lose No journaling and it gets turned back on?

Its not really ext4/rfs that's holing me back its wifi tether and that's on all froyo.

[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
What about wifi tether is holding you back?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
I keep seeing people say that AP mode craches there phone. Idk maybe there just noobs or doing some thing wrong?

Have you used it for hours and hours, day after day GBs down loaded with out it flacking out it flacking out on you?

Sent from my ComBadge..
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
The fault in the tether comes from the alpha version used to get 4G working. Tether with 3G (the version in the market) works just fine :D That flaw isn't rom specific, it's due to the tether app's newness.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
But the one in the market is ad-hoc :-( I know this realy has nothing to do with the rom, its more a froyo eb13/wifi tether app thing. I just wish mobile ap still worked on froyo.

Thanks for your support!

That's actually far below expected scores - if you're using the latest Twilight Zone kernel, use SetCPU to switch to the On Demand governor. If anyone gets even lower scores, something's very wrong, you may have a bad flash.

It works properly from first install on. Did you wipe data before installing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman0900:
Noticed a few more problems:

I installed the stock clock from the provided zip and when I use the timer, it doesn't make any noise when it goes off, just shows up on screen.

Also, the calendar seems to be having trouble syncing my events from google. Nothing that was there previously is showing up on the phone, yet I can create an even on the phone and it syncs to the web. :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Did you wipe before install?
[Epic 4G Android Development] cocochannel:
OK so I feel bad for being the dumb one. But Im on Nebula DK28/EXT4.

How do I flash this new syndicate? DO I have to Odin back to DI18 and then do the official EB13 then this or I can do it straight from Nebula DK28 to Syndicate EB13?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman0900:
In it's settings there is an option to change device profile. I set that to the right phone before even trying it. Maybe that is the problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Follow the instructions in the second post under "If you are not on EB13".

The issue has been with users who have not wiped data or had a bad flash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman0900:
Yeah. I used odin, then flashed to midnight rom for a few days, then wiped 3x, then flashed to this.

EDIT: I turned off sync, cleared data on calendar and calendar storage, then turned on sync and now its fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
My benchmarks are at 800-950, should I reflash this rom? I didn't wipe before, I came from midMIGHT 4.1.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
Wow... I'm an acs believer

Never have I been over 1800 in quadrant.

But now look at this
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
We will investigate the calendar.

I know you flashed the new kernel - set the governor to On Demand in SetCPU.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
I did on demand and got 1079. I'll reflash this, just to be safe. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Thanks for your support!

EDIT: On the calendar issue: our testers report there is not a bug in the ROM, and that events created from the web show up nearly instantly. Be sure you give it time to sync, and if you continue to have issues, clear the data for the calendar app and calendar provider.
[Epic 4G Android Development] snowmanwithahat:
No joke.... I've been following this since it was posted, all 32 pages of it so far in like 5 hours. It's a monster of a thread
[Epic 4G Android Development] budderocks:
Very nice ROM...very quick and responsive. I noticed someone else tested...so I will confirm that Voice Dialing works over Bluetooth. I also tested my stereo headphones with Pandora and A2DP works as well.

The only issue I have is that Words with Friends will not work. Probably not the issue you were expecting to see, but I am addicted to the game. When I open it up, I get a long URL overlaid on the screen and can't get rid of it. From what I can gather by what is in the URL, it looks like this is for a banner ad. I went into Angry Birds, and not one banner ad came up. Was something baked into this ROM to block those or is this a consequense of the Carrier IQ being removed?

Thank you in advance....this is a well put together ROM
[Epic 4G Android Development] snowmanwithahat:
k0nane mentions in an earlier post that ads have been blocked in this rom by default.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Thanks for the confirmation. It should not be a consequence of CIQ being removed. We do block ads by default - though that shouldn't show up when ads are blocked. If you'd like to test, just rename /etc/hosts to /etc/hosts.bak and reboot.

Are you guys using infrastructure mode with WPA With pre11.

What tipe of clients?

Maybe I just had a case of seeing the glass half empty by reading all the bad reports in this thread on other threads. EB13 has not be out for even a month. So I guess I was in no rush to jump on to froyo just to be on froyo if it ment losing Mobile AP/ Infrastructure mode.

Well, I flashed the wireless tether fix and the app (infrastructure mode) still causes random reboots whereas the older ad hoc wireless tether app works flawlessly. IMO problem is not the fix but the app itself that needs work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] EvanWasHere:
So..love the ROM.. very fast..

Had issues the first 2 times I installed it.. coming from the original Sprint OTA..

First issue was a boot loop after the install

Second issue was no sound after i wiped again and installed.

So, i went back to CWM wiped 5 more times (so 15 wipes in total) and installed.. this time everything went well..

Installed all my apps and restored my 18,000 txts.. ROM is faast.. and no crashes..

But now I realized that the volume is really really low.. I went into the sound/volume settings and jacked all the volumes to the right, but I can barely hear the alarm or ringer. The vibrating is actually louder than the sound! How do I fix this and make this ROM perfect?

(edit) Also, when I use a bluetooth, the phone makes weird clicking noises from its internal speaker after i hang up... happens every once in a while. Also happened when I was on the original Sprint OTA.. but didnt happen with the original ROM that came with the phone. Anyone else with a bluetooth have this?

(Damnit edit) And now the sound is all of a sudden loud.. But I didnt make any changes...
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevalB:
Not that much noobish, and what's funny is, I'm using it now on 4G on a different rom, and it works fine, no phone resets.

I have this same problem with my Plantronics Voyager Pro, only on the ROM. Indeed, I always bragged about how easy my BT was to connect with my phone on the stock rom, but now it won't connect without re-pairing each time.

In my bluetooth settings, my device says it is Paired, but it wont re-connect as it used to.

UPDATE: Thankfully I restarted my phone, repaired my device, and did some testing. My headset appears to be connecting appropriately (automatically with the short tap of a single button). I'll check this out and edit my post if I see the issue arise again after another restart.

I have been a fan of their hardware for all my cellphones. Maybe they skimped on a quality USB cable to cut some costs. Maybe the savings was passed on to you, maybe it wasn't. But to down a company for an accessory is pretty dumb. I for one am happy that it came with a usb cable, headphones, and 16gb sdcard. Could have been a lot less for a lot more $$. Don't try and fire back about software updates either, because you are clearly in a ROM thread so you took matters into your hands to make your phone better. /rant

Just throwing my hat into the ring for the sake of completion.

Count me among the users who have had this ROM working for several days and then began receiving multiple FC's across applications.

I installed this ROM last Wed/Thurs (4 or 5 days ago), and used extensively over the weekend (fastest rom ever). Just this afternoon, my phone rebooted itself and when it came back to life, Messenging, Google Services Framework, and Swype were all FC'ing on me (and continue to FC).

I posted this in Mystery's theme thread since another user was seeing the same apps force close, and am reflashing the ROM at his advice now. I just wanted to get a post over here so there is visibility to this particular ROM.

fwiw I have 1.0.1 standard release with all the fixes from post 2 flashed.

Well hello there master impaler!

I need your help please. im on this wonderful rom (fully loaded version, i like TW) and i love everything about it. everything works perfect (except a few things that are not important right now). I chose this rom primarily for the fact that i thought it would give me better battery time. however, it seems that im getting the same amount of batt as stock DK28 and stock EB13. the phone consumes about 10% per hours with moderate-heavy use which is really annoying when you kindda have to have your phone plugged in all the time.Please let me know if you can help me and if you can please let me knw what info you would need. thnx in advance.

[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
10% per hour with heavy use is good. You're not going to get much better on any phone/rom/universe right now. If you want better battery, you'll need to cut back from heavy usage, especially data. :o

Sounds like data corruption.
